There's supposedly been a slight (intentional) color modification to the Dooku saber that's included with Anakin, going from a pinkish hue, to more of a red:

Take that as you will. Might happen to the Dooku figure as well, no idea. I'll have to see a couple in person to decide if it's something I want to go after.

And John, scroll back a page or two, as I think I mentioned somewhere that the Deluxe Vader indeed does come with different noggins, which are just as scar mentioned above: Flat and very battle scarred, glossy with a wash effect to it, and glossy and clean. Sounds like those are the chronological order they were released in as well, so the really jacked up version will likely be the tougher one to find.

Also, it looks like we never mentioned the #36 Exploding Grievous change. They moved his lightsaber from the left side of the bubble (mostly hidden by the insert picture) over to the right side of the bubble where it's much easier to see. I've seen the revised version a number of times in the past couple weeks, since it's been shipping in the newer assortments.

I thought it went from the red saber to the pinkish saber? I only seen a few of the red ones when the variation started showing up , and now I only see pink sabers.

For now I will be, but I'll probably be picking some up down the road. I'm afraid I might get caught up in the moment at midnight and walk out with every one of them!

EDIT: Well I DID find the figures this morning at Walmart, but they would not let me buy them. I think the figures look great myself. My initial plan of 11 figures may have just increased! But we'll see.

Damn, Ohio is too goodie-goodie and wont put anything out! For Episode I, a local Kmart put everything out a day early, but thats been the only time anything major hit the shelves early.

I REALLY want to find something early. Its only about 2 weeks away, but its starting to kill me. I'm actually getting excited about it. At first I was worried that I wouldnt have enough money for what I wanted, and then I realized theres only 11 out of the first 56 figures I really want, so I'll be fine!

2-3 weeks ago my walmart had about 6 or 8 flacond for $18.99, like a dummy I didn't get one cause Iwas waitning for some money. Well last week I got the extra money, go to walmart and lo and behond they were all GONE!I have often wondered if they were pulled for some reason and might be put back out in April, and probably at a higher than $18 price

At $18.99, they probably just sold out. My stores still had them for $35 and they all vanished. Either they were pulled or they could be holding them back and maybe put on with EIII figures.
